If you're browsing for bedding, you might have come across the term 'duvet tog'. Perhaps you've spotted the words on a care tag or scrolled past them online without totally understanding what they mean.
'Tog' is a number between 1 and 15 that indicates a duvet's capacity to retain heat: the higher the tog, the warmer the duvet. British bedding brands often refer to duvet tog ratings, though the numbers tend to be used interchangeably with terms, such as 'winter', 'summer', and 'all-season'. For the uninitiated, it can be difficult to know where to start.
